The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)

The program provides vital food assistance and boosts the local economy. Every SNAP dollar spent in North Alabama generates up to $1.70 in economic return.

SNAP Applications

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), formerly known as food stamps, helps families and individuals afford groceries. If eligible, clients will receive an EBT card (similar to debit card) which will be reloaded monthly with an allotted amount of money to be used to purchase food at grocery stores and farmers’ markets.
